I'm surprised AT&T didn't sue the hell out of apple because BLIT is clearly older than the Macintosh. BLIT is actually from 1982 as is shown in the video at 3:5

BLIT is actually from 1982 as is shown in the video at 3:50 and in the copyright notice some seconds later.
The wikipedia article also claims it's 1882.
